Basket Stinkhorn Fungus

I found yet another strange fungus near the short cut trail to the river. This one was growing in a place that was very awkward to photograph, but here are the best shots. I believe it is a type of Basket Stinkhorn fungus, however there was no foul smell coming from it. I imagine when it first opened it was more of a ball shape, but when I saw it it has collapsed. It was about three inches across.

In December 2008 my husband and I sold most of our possessions and left Seattle for a new life in Costa Rica. This blog documents the transition, finding property and developing it into our paradise. After settling into life in Puriscal I took up photography as a hobby and the blog now features a photo a day from the property and around town.
